Due to the sharp drop in farm income, this problem is perplexing a great many farm owners and mortgage holders in Oregon. Based on preliminary doty», the Orogon cash farm index is given at 43re o f the 1926-1930 average This compares with around 55 for 1931. 84 fo r 1930. and 105» fo r 1929. Most o f the decline in incom,, is due to low prices, as gross pro duction has been fairly well main tained. The report points out that the payment o f fixed charges fo r in terest on indebtedness out o f farm income is now quite a different matter than it was threP or four years ago when income was much greater. What can he don? is the ques tion being asked fa r and wide Foreclosure! Moratorium! Adjust ment! Legislation' A ll are being discussed and acted upon, more or j less. In several states, county farm mortgage adjustment boards hav, been set up through which debtors and creditors may obtain assist ance in making adjustments. These county boards are composed o f per sons who are capable of supplying valuable information and sugges- ; tions to both creditors and debtors in the present emergency. DIRT IN HEATING PLANT BIG CAUSE OF FUELWASTE Giant £ action Cleaner Take* 22 Bushel* of Soot From Single Sy*tem. Many a housewife, ruefully looking at the smoked walls and smudged drapes in her home during the cold months, makes up her mind never to go through another winter of house cleaning drudgery, occasioned by a soot-clogged furnace. Investment of the price of one ton o f coal, or less. In a thorough cleaning of the heating plant before the heating sea son starts will save the price of sev- eral tons of fuel during the winter, the Holland Institute of Thermology o f Holland, Mich., ao rises. And If will save the housewife the worry, drudgery and extra cleaning expense that are caused by a dirt| heating plant. In support of this statemeut the In- sUtute's heating engineers cite tests recently completed by the United States Bureau of Standards which revealed that one-eightb o f an Inch of soot In the heating clumber ana other parts of the centra! heating plant reduces the net efficiency of the system 28 per cent, and a quarter Inch coating of soot. 48 per cent The removal of these snot coatings means a corresponding increase In the heating efficiency of the plant, with resultant fuel savings. Also, a dirty heating plant means Just so much more grime to be tracked up stairs am, extra work for the house wife In sweeping and cleaning mgs and other fabrics. The extent of this house cleaning burden where the heat ing plant Is not clean Is Indicated by the fact that as much as 22 bushels of soot snd dirt have been extracted from the heating system of a single home. In times gone by, cleaning the heat ing plant was always a messy Job. but todny It Is a Job that Is done quick ly, quietly and effectively by a vacu um cleaner that comes to the house on an automobile truck, equipped with a fan driven by » motor, a huge can vas ung und several sections of flex Ible piping. The powerful suction of the fan ss effectively cleans out the heating plant. Including the chimney, as the household vacuum cleaner cleans the nigs. ff '£, Harold Titus W N V • K R V 1C t “ Then you stumbled on to a loca tion and the properties that fitted like a glove to a plan.
